The Darkest Summer is the hour-by-hour, casualty-by-casualty story of those months-a period that saw American and UN forces almost driven into the sea by the North Korean invaders, then stage an incredible turn-around that reversed the entire course of the war. Drawing on exclusive author interviews, unpublished memoirs, and oral histories, the book recounts the most dramatic and historically important portion of the war from the perspective of the soldiers and Marines on the ground. Bill Sloan takes the listener into muddy foxholes, across endless rice paddies, and up hotly contested ridges with the men who fought and fell there. 506 $a Digital content provided by hoopla. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Korean War, 1950-1953 $x Campaigns $z Pusan Region. $z Pusan Region. 650 0 $a Inchon Landing, InchE̿i̿n, Korea, 1950. 650 0 $a Audiobooks. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/10755492 $y Instantly available on hoopla. $z Instantly available on hoopla. $3 URL 856 42 $z Cover image $u http://d1n8i81n8cnkc4.cloudfront.net/ttm/978/140/019/328/8/ttm_9781400193288_thumbnail.jpeg $y Cover image $3 URL 941 $a 1 952 $l TAPB572 $d 20221202013937.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=45BBDCB6720F11EDB6E4AA0447ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
